Wednesday and I am still going, I am very proud of myself. Usually after a day, I forget or get to busy with work to remember to keep going!! Not this time, I so much very hope that I can can fit it into my Project Life, this year I think I have completed one week in May! 

To my Wednesday, again radio alarm comes on at 4:25, I am a very light sleeper and always wake up with the radio, I am so old, I love listening to the old ABC radio!! But just in case I one day sleep in I have a second alarm on my phone at 4:30am, however this morning I was lying there waiting for my snooze alarm to go off, I look over and realized I turned it off the first time...oh shit...jump out of bed, shower, no wahing my hair this morning - dry shampoo - my favorite!


My makeup at the moment, Cover Girl Mascara, Models Prefer Nude eye shadows, and Morgan Annie mineral powder foundation. I love that stuff!



Today I made a sandwich for my lunch, salami, cheese, lettuce and usually tomato, but I only have cherry tomatoes in the fridge, and salad cream. It is my favorite sandwich and it has been a while since I have made a sandwich for lunch. I also had another punnet of strawberries and a pear that was left over from yesterday. I am pretty hopeless at eating breakfast, I usually just have my black coffee, until mid morning and then I might snack on some fruit.


 Coffee, I LOVE my Nespresso machine, I am running very low on pods now, I will have to visit Nespresso this weekend in the city and stock up! I have a very small kitchen in my apartment, I am using the mircowave wall holder as my coffee spot.


I am slightly late for work again, similar to yesterday. I don't know whats going on at the moment!


I arrived 5:35am, got the driver going on there day, I took a couple of the driver down to one of ther servicing company's to pick up one of the OSR trucks that blew a turbo on Monday. 





Lovely cool morning again, it is drizzling, the view over the Indian Ocean is lovely as usual even with the demolition crews pulling the place down around us! The land is prime Fremantle Real Estate, and has been sold for million dollar apartments. I am saving my dollars now so I can buy one...dreams..




There is a driver thru coffee place on the way back the I have wanted to try and I love finding a new coffee place, this was Hot Shot's coffee. It was great, and they gave me a little ANZAC biscuit with it. 



My Desk selfie today, this is from my laptop and one of my screens, I love my two computer screens!


I love this place, it is so enjoyable watching ship sail by, and today I saw a Navy ship on its way into port. The zoom on my iPhone was at full with this photo.





I had to go out and sort a few things out with one of the road trains today, this part of my job is my favorite, out with the trucks! Look at the sky, blue as...

Not long after...


 

The rain was so heavy for a few hours this afternoon, this is the view out the window behind my desk. I must remember to take a photo of my view from my front window.


I was looking for a document today and after months of not sorting out my filing I finally just sorted it all out..thank goodness!

 




The early morning guys paperwork I leave out for them.


After work today, I left late, about 4pm, I just went straight home, not via the gym again!!

It was a nice wet afternoon and the view from my front window.






I had a heap of dishes to put away from Monday..very unlike me to leave dishes. I cannot stand not having the dishes done every day.




 I saw a photo on Ali's blog of her washing her hands in the sink, I tried to re-create it!!






When there was a break in the rain I run out and checked the mail box, the night before I went out and removed the no junk mail sign from my mail box, this is the first!! I really did it because I heard on the radio that the Ikea catalog is due out from this Saturday and it says cover up your no junk mail signs.

 I made Satay chicken for dinner, watched Gilmore Girls and Friends, then started reading everyone else Week in the Life blogs and thought I am going to do that!! I had the Australian Bacholar on  in the background, i can't stand it, but it was the best thing on TV..




While I was writing my blog.




I finally finished and I could bearly keep my eyes open, so I went for a shower and brushed my teeth. I always have 2 glasses of water after I have brushed.




 I usually have a quick bathroom clean most nights, I read it was the way to keep your house in order! It think it works well, I like to come home to a clean place.





In bed and it is 10:08pm! So late for me, I have Sherlock Homes on my bedroom TV tonight.






I am feeling quite awake now, so I read more peoples blogs, you all have such amazing blogs!


Completely staged photo, but I have really enjoyed think about the different ways to capture my everyday. 

Thanks for reading about my day.

I have wanted to partake in Ali Edwards Week in the Life since first came across it a few years ago and as usual I forgot! So I started a day late, I really should put my life planner to better use!

My day, Tuesday 18 August 2015 -


 My alarm goes off at 4:25am - I am still not used to it. I have a second alarm on my phone at 4:30. Up, shower, wash my hair, dress, dry hair, make-up, and put my breakfast and lunch in my bag. Today I seem to be running more behind than usual! At 5:14am, I am out the door in he car.


 My rolled my ankle pretty badly last week so I am still wearing it strapped up.

 





I arrive at work at 5:35, the latest I have ever been! I unlock the building and the tuck drivers turn up for the day shift ( I am the scheduler for a fuel company). 



After the usual small talk and work chit chat, I clean the coffee machine so they can have their morning cappuccino's.


All driver are have left for the day and the sun has come up. It is winter here in Perth, it is cool and cloudly and the breeze smelt amazing today, my office and yard backs right onto the Indian Ocean.



The photo's don't do the view justice, I will have to take my good camera into work this week. All these photos, by the way, are from my iPhone 6+.




This photo is funny, a rival company are in our yard re-filled the equipment that is demoing the site...and then the drivers can't get out of the gate so comes and asks me to let him out! I also got to drive the forklift around for a while today, loading a few pallets on a truck. I enjoy using the forklift, I miss I had remembered to take a photo!


This year's strawberries are amazing, I also brought in a Banana cake that I made last night and forgot to take a photo of, it was a big hit as usual.




Me at my very messy desk, I am usually organised, but in the last 6 months, I have gotten rather behind in everything.





After I finally left work, about 4:30pm, 11 hour shift, I stopped at Coles on the way home. Strawberries, hair conditioner, eggs, butter, tuna, plain flour, chicken, lettuce, cream, mushrooms, bread and dry shampoo! I got home, watched some TV, Gilmore Girls on Gem & The Project on Ten.




It was bin night, I took all the rubbish out to the bins out on the road.




I didn't eat any dinner tonight, I had a couple of peices of fresh bread when I got home and that filled me up!




By 8pm, there was nothing on TV, and I couldn't see my knitting anymore, my eyes were heavy. So I went off for a shower (I got all inspired about Ali's shower pictures, so I started out with this one!!) Brushed my teeth and hoped into bed.

 

Time:8:35pm - Bed Time!




I played a game of Pet Rescue Sage on my work phone and started watching NCIS, I put the sleep timer on my TV and was well and truly asleep before 9pm.




I am so pleased with myself that I managed to get a whole day completed, even if I did miss a few good photo opportunity. 

Please see Ali Edwards Tuesday blog post for further information about the Week in the Life. I just love reading everyone elses Days!!

Good Night.

Last weekend I saw a few ideas on Pinterest making an ATC trays. I knew I wanted to make one using 3 x 4 inch cards




I used all my Stampin' Up! products, some of my new products & a few retired.

Stamp sets I used - The Open Sea, Summer Silhouettes, Tea Shoppe, Postage, Elements of  Style, Clockworks, Creative Elements, Papillion Potpourri, Off the grid, Beautifully Baroque, Positively Chevron, & Flower Shop, all using Very Vanilla card stock, sponged with Crumb Cake.



 

Wow 2 posts in one week, that must be a record!!

I thought I would share a few things that I cooked on the weekend. I LOVE to cook and this year I have been trying so many new recipes, at least once a week, if not twice. I have a massive cook book collection and subscribe to the Delicious Magazine and the Australian Good Taste, both are always full of great recipes I want to try.

On Saturday I went to the Albany Farmers Market, which is something that I love to go to every week. They have always got such great variety of produce and it is always the best tasting, this week there was a new stall that had bacon and ham, I forgot to look at the name of it but!! Next week...

The weather was abit drizzly, but I really enjoy this weather over a hot day!

Later in the day I went with my sister to buy a dishwasher, and while she was busy I looked around and I came across the bread makers for half price!! I have thought I would like a bread maker for a while, I could make it in the Thermomix but you have to be there and watch it, get it out to rise etc etc. So for conveniece I thought that I would like to buy one, so I did! Once I got home, I made a loaf and it worked out amazing. Of course I had to have the crust just after it came out.


For dessert on Saturday night I made a Pecan Dacquoise from the cook book, For Foods Sake by Tenina Holder. This book is great for those who have a Thermie, I have made alot of the recipes out of this book. This will definatly go on the list to make again, it was chewy in the middle and crunchy on the outside. 

 Thanks for reading and I hope that I have not made you to hungry, I know I am!!!
